A painter, experimental artist and poet, Perejaume was self-taught, although he was influenced by artists such as Joan Brossa, with whom he shared a work that straddled painting and poetry. In 2005 he was awarded the National Visual Arts Prize by the Generalitat de Catalunya. The following year he was awarded the National Visual Arts Prize by the Ministry of Culture. His work can be seen in the ARTIUM in Vitoria, the Centro de Arte Reina Sofía, the MACBA in Barcelona, the Museo Patio Herreriano in Valladolid, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney, the Coca-Cola and Telefónica Foundations and the Chase Manhattan Bank Collection, the Caja Madrid Contemporary Art Collection, the European Central Bank Collection in Frankfurt and the Deutsche Bank Collection, among other public and private institutions around the world.
